C30 28 Infatuation Tells Me That I must Support the Heavens and the Earth by Myself

Along the way, Liu Chong drove the car by himself. Nothing he said in the car could escape his ears. Along the way, it was Ye Keying who kept asking Yuanzhi questions. The bird-like voice occasionally carried Yuanzhi's answer or two. Liu Chong, in his boredom, was able to sort out most of the sequence of events and gradually had a clear understanding of his thoughts.

Yuanzhi left the gambling house that day and went all the way south to Quanzhou Shaolin. Quanzhou has been close to a lot of foreigners, turbulent times, people are in danger, the monks in the temple are no exception. Nan Shaolin's reputation was not as prominent as the northern Shaolin, and he only had a quiet position in the martial arts world. From the top to the bottom of the temple, he was modest and cautious, not daring to make a fuss. Seeing that there was a monk that had come to stay at Bei Shaolin for the time being, they naturally treated him as a distinguished guest.

Yuanzhi was not the only one who came to the Southern Shaolin, and in terms of talent ranking, he was the lowest among them. The others were still arrogant in Nan Shaolin, only he always kept his head down and refused to look up. Months later, the entire temple was filled with joy.

Nan Shaolin's team of monks was ready, he did not need Yuanzhi's help, but he was unwilling to slack off, working day and night. He was born with great strength and was adept at handling matters steadily. Within a few days, he had attracted the attention of an extremely influential grandmaster in the Southern Shaolin region. In the eyes of that master, Yuanzhi was like an unpolished jade being buried in a pile of rocks, but no one could make him up. Seeing that he was getting older, he was about to miss his chance to practice martial arts. Firstly, this master was a genius and secondly, he wanted to borrow Yuanzhi's talent to restore Nan Shaolin's prestige. Then, he disregarded the rules of Wu Lin. Pulling down his face, he asked the monks of the northern Shaolin for people. The people of the Northern Shaolin didn't think much of Yuanzhi. Now that they were living under the eaves of the Southern Shaolin, they readily agreed.

Since then, Yuanzhi was carefully trained by the master, practicing the Southern Shaolin Temple treasure "Five Ancestor Boxing." That master suffered because of his mediocre talent. In the martial arts world, he could only be considered a first class master, but he had a deep understanding of martial arts. Teaching according to talent, gradually lead Yuanzhi to use his own endowment, from then on Yuanzhi kung fu state, gradually ascend the hall of elegance, daily fight with the martial brothers, never lost, the entire temple favored. At this time, the people from Northern Shaolin saw Yuanzhi as if he had been reborn. Although they couldn't help but feel regret, they could only admit that they had been taken advantage of.

Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for him to leave his apprenticeship. When he was preparing to go down the mountain, he heard from others that Henan was currently in a chaotic battle, and he was concerned about Ye Keying. Once he got off the mountain, he immediately rushed towards his Luoyang. Luckily, they were able to save the lives of everyone.

The mountain roads were muddy, and the carriages were difficult to travel on. The carriage was pushed out of the mud by Yuanzhi. Without the Electricity pulling the carriage, it was only late into the night when the group finally arrived at the Welfare Granary. He was tired, but he could not sleep. Chen Wanniang had woken up a long time ago, so she didn't have time to think about other matters. She forced herself to focus on her task and arrange everyone's location.

Finally, the arrangements were made, and the six of them took turns to rest. Qiu Cai simply bandaged his wound and volunteered to go to the sentry first so that Chen Wanniang and the other three could rest.

Since others couldn't persuade him, they could only go to rest. However, with the young genius doctor, Liu Chong, Qiu Cai's injury was not too serious.

The night passed in silence. During the day, everyone was busy with their own stuff. Those who rest rest, those who heal, those who go out to find out news to find out.

Liu Chong wanted to enter the warehouse to check when he had free time, but was stopped by Yun Ying, saying that it was currently not appropriate to enter. It was more important to treat everyone's injuries. He felt strange, but in the end, he did not persist.

In the evening, Qiu Cai went on duty again. Liu Chong, Yuanzhi, and Chen Wanniang slept on the carriage, while Ye Keying, Yun Ying, and Chen Wanniang lived in Welfare Granary's entrance hut.

Liu Chong slept until midnight, and was always unable to sleep soundly. Suddenly, Sheng Chang, Ding Yao and even Fu Yiping, who was covered in blood, woke up from his dream. He stretched out his hand to touch the steel, and his back was covered in cold sweat.

Listening to Yuanzhi's snoring beside him, Liu Chong woke up at that moment and lost all sleepiness for a short while. Looking out of the window at the moonlight, it was about noon, so it would take several hours before daybreak. He rolled over and tried to sleep again. Suddenly, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the car. It was Ye Keying.

Liu Chong was about to get up, but Ye Keying lifted the curtain and gently pushed his back. "Damn pig, wake up!"

Liu Chong pressed his lips together, propped himself up, stretched his body and said: "What are you arguing about!" Young Miss, it's already so late, why aren't you sleeping? Why aren't you asking others to sleep? "

Ye Keyingbai looked at him and said, "Sleep, sleep. You only know how to sleep!" I saw the shopkeeper go out in the middle of the night and not come back for a long time. I wonder if there's anything you need, can we go out and take a look? "

Liu Chong yawned and said, "Good, good, good! However, it was likely that Sister Chen went to discuss some matters with Senior Qiu. Let's go take a look. I still need to be on duty tomorrow morning! "

The tree branches cut the moonlight into pieces and scattered on the ground. The two of them stepped on the faintly discernable moonlight, as if they weren't walking on earth. The two walked around and took a look. In this quiet forest where no one was around, they could only hear the vague sounds of birds chirping and beasts howling. Everything was peaceful and quiet.

Unbeknownst to them, the foot of the mountain was covered with layers upon layers of silver armor that exuded a murderous aura. A thousand Qing Army cultivators, armed with cannons and guns, had already set up camp by the edge of the forest.

It was night. Two snow white carrier pigeons flew out from within the Qing Army Camp, one to the south and one to the north. In a small camp near the main commander's camp, a middle-aged man with white hair was looking up at the sky. He let out a soft "yea" and threw two rocks into the air. The two stones pierced the air like lightning: a pebble passed through a carrier pigeon, the pigeon gave a miserable cry and tumbled down; the other pebble, like a shooting star, flew in a circular arc and disappeared into the distance.

The man frowned. He gently pressed his right arm and muttered to himself, "Why is my injury still not completely healed?" He then glanced at the stunned soldier, "Go and find me the carrier pigeon!"

The two of them walked along the mountain path and went to a few hidden sentries. However, they didn't see any trace of Chen Wanniang or her. The seventh sentry post was high enough to overlook the entire mountain, and it was also where Sheng Chang was buried. The two of them were still several hundred feet away from each other. Liu Tie looked at the pine trees in the distance and could not help but secretly feel sorrowful in his heart. While she was in a daze, she heard Ye Keying whisper, "Listen, it's Chief Shopkeeper speaking!"

Liu Chong hurriedly stopped. He knew that he and Ye Keying had extraordinary hearing. It was a skill that came from a young age and had a solid foundation. Therefore, an inner force expert like Chen Wanniang was slightly weaker than them. However, Chen Wanniang was strong, so the two of them didn't dare to get too close.

The two of them were filled with curiosity. After walking for a long time, they were no longer sleepy. They looked at each other and wanted to hear what Chen Wanniang and Qiu Cai had to say.

Chen Wanniang said, "..." You come here every day and your heart is hurt. In the long run, even Sheng Chang will not be able to be at ease in the Nine Springs. "

Qiu Cai said, "Hai, after Tiancheng left that day, I thought about what he said a few times. "What he said is right. It was me who was so eager to achieve great success that I kept myself away from them, causing discord and enmity between us. Fifth brother died miserably."

Chen Wanniang said, "Qiu Cai, don't think too much into it. As I see it, you and Sheng Chang and those three men had different natures. They went their separate ways, and it was only a matter of time, and sooner or later, it would all come to an end. I didn't want to say those words. I don't want you to blame yourself too much at the moment. Think about it, is it worth it to feel guilty about them? "

Qiu Cai was silent for a while before saying, "Their natures are not like this. It was all because of the forced circumstances of their youth that they gradually became unrecognizable and were annihilated by the heavens. Even so, they had merged into the Welfare Granary together with me, and after living for so many years, their situation had become even worse. As your big brother, how can I shirk responsibility? " Chen Wanniang said, "You are their big brother, but I am Chief Shopkeeper from the gambling den. In terms of responsibility, how can you be heavier than me? If you want to blame someone, you have to blame me. "

Qiu Cai asked, "You already saw that they had ill intentions, so you taught them more strictly in the gambling den. What's wrong with that?" Chen Wanniang laughed bitterly and said, "Fine, let me make an analogy." If I remember correctly, your favorite reading is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" after you were able to read in the gambling den. The characters in the stories should be familiar with each other, right? "

Qiu Cai said, "That's right."

Chen Wanniang said, "Then, do you think that Wei Yan is good or evil? Zhuge Liang, do you think he is accurate? " Qiu Cai said, "Wei Yan is naturally fickle and disloyal. Zhuge Liang initially said that he had a backbone in his head, warning Liu Bei that this person could not be used. Then, sure enough, he rebelled. Zhuge Liang can't be any more accurate than that! "

Chen Wanniang said, "No." It wasn't that he was accurate, it was that his mother rebelled against Wei Yan. "Think about it. If you, Wei Yan, wholeheartedly sought after someone, and had your life on the line, what would you do then?"

Qiu Cai did not answer, as he had never thought of it like this. He was shocked and could not answer at all. Chen Wanniang continued, "Right now, the three people of Hee Yang's group are the same. I have treated you and Sheng Chang differently from the start, but I have always been wary of the three of them. After they entered the gambling den, they were humiliated by me everywhere. I didn't treat them sincerely, so how could I not expect them to have second thoughts? In the end, it's all because I'm trying to be brave and conceited that the situation has developed to this point. "Everything that I have done for myself is all my fault to you brothers." After he finished speaking, he let out a long sigh, as if he was extremely exhausted.

Qiu Cai was silent again for a while. Finally, he opened his mouth and said: "What you're saying is too complicated. I don't understand it at the moment, so I don't blame you."

Hearing this, Ye Keying poked Liu Chong with her finger and asked with a frown, "What's so difficult about this? Why is it that Big Brother Qiu doesn't understand?" Liu Chong was two years older than her and was already able to understand Qiu Cai's thoughts a little. He then said in a deep voice, "He doesn't want to blame Shopkeeper, so he pretended he doesn't understand."

Chen Wanniang naturally understood what Qiu Cai was trying to say. She changed the topic and said, "I have something to discuss with you today. the Welfare Granary... "

Qiu Cai hurriedly said, "Speaking of which, I have something to ask you. I was resting in the Welfare Granary hut during the day, and when I woke up, I went in to check the Welfare Granary's condition, and I saw that there were no particles at all. Why is that? "Now that there's no one else around, you can tell me, did Xie Huan secretly take it to be paid by the rebel army?"

Chen Wanniang snorted and said, "I told you that Xie Huan was definitely not that kind of person, so you refused to believe me. I have already asked Yun Ying and Ding Yao to distribute the Welfare Granary food to the refugees.

Liu Chong secretly sucked in a cold breath of air. No wonder Yun Ying didn't want him to get off the ship. Presumably, Qiu Cai was able to get in because there was no one in the cabin. Since the Welfare Granary already ran out of food, then it would be a waste, so why did Chen Wanniang still bring the rest of the people here to protect? Faintly, he felt that this matter was extremely complicated and mysterious.

Qiu Cai also had the same doubts, so he asked: "Why? Why did you bring us here? "

Chen Wanniang said, "That's what I want to talk about. To put it bluntly, even if Hee Yang and the others didn't sell out, I had already planted people into the Qing Army and lured all the nearby Qing Army over. This Welfare Granary is a dangerous place, we are the bait, the Qing Army is the fish, the real force is the allied army. "

Liu Chong and Ye Keying were so shocked that they couldn't help but shudder. Qiu Cai was also a bit flustered and said: "Then, then shall we wait here?"

Chen Wanniang said, "That's right." As soon as I joined the army, I knew that sooner or later, the gambling house would be dragged into the war, and that was not what you or I wanted. You also know that this Welfare Granary is something that I have painstakingly refined over the years. Unless I have no other choice, I will not easily give it up. Right now, according to my plan, when the troops gather at Mount Wangwu, we will block them for a while. Once the situation on the outside is settled, we will immediately rush into the Welfare Granary to escape. The Welfare Granary passage was heavy, and the path was narrow. I had already prepared the gunpowder mechanism inside, and when everyone escaped from the mountain temple's exit, they would ignite the gunpowder and kill themselves. As for the rest, they would no longer be related to us. I have already discussed this with Xie Huan, so this is our last favor to do for Welfare Granary. From now on, he only said that we died in the belly of the mountain. And then, we would leave the allied army, leave this land of conflict, be free and unrestrained, and it would not be a waste for us to destroy our Welfare Granary. I never thought that Luo Zhongkai would actually help Qing Army. If he were to make a move, even if we have Yuanzhi here, I'm afraid that he wouldn't be able to handle all of his schemes and viciousness. In this way, we might not be able to stop them for even a quarter of an hour. If Qing Army were to enter our Welfare Granary beforehand, it would be easy to defend and hard to attack.

Qiu Cai interrupted her and said, "It's easy to defend. It's not impossible."

Chen Wanniang said, "That's right. If you really want to defend, you can do it by yourself. However, unless it was absolutely necessary … "Qiu Cai, from now on, Liu Chong, Keying and the others will have to ask you to take care of them."

But Qiu Cai flatly refused and said, "No! If you want to defend, I will do so. I am a man. Although my martial arts are not as good as Luo Zhongkai's, it is still my duty to protect you.

This was probably the boldest thing he could say, and Chen Wanniang had never expected him to reveal all of the things he had been suppressing in his heart. They were at a loss for words for a long time.

Liu Chong and Ye Keying were even more shocked when they heard this. After waiting for a long time and seeing that there was no sound, Ye Keying lightly pulled Liu Chong and asked, "Are we leaving?"

Liu Chong nodded and said, "Let's go." He stood up and glanced at the tree shadows once more before walking away.
